    Long time no see, everyone!
    Sorry you haven't been having a great time Sue-UU :( glad to see you're back and things are a little better!

    So, it's been quite some time since I have been on, but I have still been potting. Lots of unconventional ways but it's always fun!
    Physio is going well, and I'm walking with a rollator (wheeled walker) more now. So now I'm either in my wheelchair with my litter picker picking up road kill, or on a good day, i'm out getting some steps on my fitbit and picking up roadkill with my litter picker!! I'm reknowned round here, I tell you! :rotfl::T:rotfl:

    Managed to pot quite a bit the last fortnight:
    *Found some old Euro's which I took to the post office and exchanged back to GBP - bagging myself £38.63! I couldn't believe it, i hadn't really added up the euros, it was just a load of change! :j (Not sure the woman behind the counter really understood why I was so pleased!
    * Found some coins, including old £ coins, and old £5 note and 2 old £10 notes in an old purse under the bed! (Altogether £29.58!)
    * Thought washer was broken, but it just had a £2 coin jammed in it!

    Really feel like my luck is on the up. £70.21 in two weeks! More than I've potted in months I think!
    Hope you're all well, and it's good to be back!

    Yayyyyy! welcome back Sue! I have missed you! :grouphug: <-- (its a Sue sandwich :D :rotfl: )

    Things not so great in the J-M household, had my PIP result back and the assessor put a big old bag of (I want to say made up junk but i'm sure the DWP would never employ people who would do that . . ) miss information causing my award to be downgraded :( Mandatory reconsideration posted off today with a shed load of aguements against their findings and to top it all off, the ME I 'don't suffer with' has knocked me for 6 and the pain 'I don't have as I don't take meds' is crippling me and got me mostly confined to my ruddy chair again :(



    It's great to see you too, jakes-mum, though I'm not giving you a dodgy hug, though I know how it's meant. :D

    I sincerely hope you managed to get your PIP sorted out, or that you will do! Please let us know how things go.



    So VERY MANY THANKS to you ALL you wonderful SPCers! :D I really and truly appreciate all your kind, lovely words, bless you all.


    You've all been saving in a brilliant way and I'm so very proud of you, excellent work for sure!!!! :T BTW, I've £25 which has just gone in my pots!!

    Not a great deal to write at the moment because we're very busy....

    ..It'll be at least TWO WEEKS until you hear from me again (nothing new lately you probably say! :() as Hubby & I will be going away on holiday to Scotland on Thursday!!!! We're so looking forward to it and no matter what the weather's like we'll thoroughly enjoy ourselves as we always do! I'll see you during the week after the 3rd, and until then, take very great care of yourselves...and save well!!!

    Sue xx
